how to know if a guy is into you or just your apres ski costume

 

sometimes the vibes feel genuine until you remember you’re wearing fur boots a tiny jacket and goggles indoors. and suddenly you’re like wait. do you like me or do you like the idea of me. like is he asking my name or just telling me my outfit is hot for the fifth time in a row. because there is a difference and it shows in the details. if he’s into you he’ll ask things that have nothing to do with how you look. like what you’re studying. what music you like. what you think about random stuff. and he’ll keep the conversation going even when you’re not actively performing being cute. but if the second you take off the costume or sit down or stop flirting the energy drops. that’s your answer. also watch what he does after the night ends. if he texts you the next day sober and in daylight and remembers things you said that weren’t about skiing or shots or how good you looked. then yeah he might actually like you. but if the attention disappears as soon as the outfit does. then he was never into you. he was into the aesthetic. the fantasy. the vibe. and that doesn’t mean you did anything wrong. it just means the costume did the heavy lifting. and the real test is whether he still shows interest when you’re in sweats
